Choice 1 : Invest in real estate.

Choice 2 : Intern to help a CEO.

CEGEP Montpetit

Apply for Social Science at Collège Montmorency.

In college, time management was one of the reasons why I got straight A's. I studied more often than not and undermined all of my friends. At least, my applications to major in Speech Linguistics at the University of McGill and the University of Montreal were accepted. I had to decide where to go.

Choice 1 : Apply to the University of McGill.

Choice 2 : Apply to the University of Montreal.

Collège Montmorency

Invest in real estate.

During college, I interned with a real estate agent to gain experience. He told me, "If I were you, I would accumulate money and invest in a property." I did as he suggested, but I soon realized that owning a property had several drawbacks. I had to learn the ins and outs of the real estate business, dealt with office politics, and overcame my lack of knowledge and experience. I also managed the maddening drudgery of paperwork, background checks, and thorough inspections. As I wasn't ready for all of this, I decided to pull out of the deal.

During college, I secured an internship in a vacant position with a CEO. I was thrilled to be offered on-the-job training (OJT) so I could learn the ropes from experienced professionals. During my trainee, I was a thoughtful and hard-working employee. I impressed my superiors, and they decided to give me a premium wage. I was overwhelmed by problems, I had to deal with bias and alienation from some of my coworkers, but I refused to let it deter me. I also learned how to handle sexual harassment in the workplace and to report perpetrators of misconduct. I got a foot in the door in the company, and I learned everything I needed to know about real estate. Now I felt confident and prepared to make my first investment. Should I invest in drop shipping or in a restaurant?

I was excited to start University, but I soon realized that the language barrier was a drawback.

I decided to take a leave of absence and change universities, and went to the University of Montreal.

In-depth, I learned to be more patient and grateful for everything I had.

I decided to open a restaurant in Morocco even though corruption was established in the country. I did everything to make my restaurant different. I wanted customers to feel safe from theft or bribe.
